I hear so many "you know you're from Michigan if..." And I want to hear the ones from other states.
Quoting bremery:
You know you're a native coloradoan when you still call invesco field "mile high"
You know you're a native colorodoan when you call six flags elitches. Although, they changed the name back.
Mile high will always be mile high no matter what the damn name is lol and its not even invesco anymore its sports authority field but yeah native colorad peeps will always say mile high and natives will know its where the broncos play duh.. and elitches yeah ... i get weird looks when i say both those things its funny cause im like dang transplants dont know nothing...

you know you're from colorado when:
you've never seen the tourist attractions in your own city
You personally wouldn't pay $10 per head to drive up Pikes Peak unless it was the only mountain on earth, but you tell all our house-guests to do it
April showers bring May blizzards.
You never pack away your coat and sweaters.
If it snows in the morning you expect it to be gone by lunchtime
When you aren't in Colorado, you no longer know which direction is which, because you can't see the mountains.( and i have actually gotten lost because of this when i first moved to iowa for school and missouri with my dd's dad )
you can recognize an out of towner when you see them driving the wrong way on a one way! and yes this is true even if they have colorado plates lol they had either just moved here or borrowed a families car
you're not surprised when another native tells you that they don't like to ski
you'' wear flip flops every day of the year regardless of temperature ( this is so my mother )
a bear falling from a tree in someones yard is not unusual
You know that all the bad drivers come from California and Texas. Yeah. That's the problem.( and yeah a lot of the natives blame the all the bad drivers on trasplants)
santa's workshop isn't just at the north pole
it has rained or snowed where there is only those thin wispy clouds but not directly over head and you dont think anything of it...
you know that it is possible for an awuarium to have tigers
bikers are everywhere ( and i mean bikes not motorcycles although those come out during warmer weather and sometimes in snow)]
you know your from oklahoma when the tornado sirens go off and you go out on your porch to look for it instead of taking shelter
Quoting jbbrom:you know your from minnesota when you can say Wayzata, Mahtomedi, Fairbault, and Edina and know where they are. and that there are 15,000 lakes not 10,000!
